This is the John Farnham version of this song. He does it as a massive power ballad, which is how the singer in our band likes to play it. INTRO x 2 bars verse 1 - Just piano (upper piano register) When I was younger, so much younger than today I never needed anybody’s help in any way But now those days are gone, Im not so self assured Now I find, Ive changed my mind, Ive opened up the door Help me if you can Im feeling down And I do appreciate you being round Help me get my feet back on the ground Wont you please, please help me verse 2 And now my life has changed, in oh so many ways My independence seems to vanish in the haze But every now and then I feel so insecure I know that I need you like Ive never done before Help me if you can Im feeling down And I do appreciate you being round Help me get my feet back on the ground Wont you please, please help me BRIDGE verse 3 - Just piano (upper piano register) When I was younger, so much younger than today I never needed anybody’s help in any way But now those days are gone, Im not so self assured Now I find Ive changed my mind, Ive opened up the door Chorus (WHOLE BAND COMES IN) Help me if you can Im feeling down And I do appreciate you being round Help me get my feet back on the ground Wont you please, please help me Help me if you can Im feeling down And I do appreciate you being round Help me get my feet back on the ground Wont you please, please help me
